Age of the Dinosaur


 

Natural History Museum
May 2011
 

Exciting family-friendly exhibition at the Natural History Museum featuring life-size dinosaurs!

Let's dig it up

This fun interactive allows multiple visitors to go through the process of scientific discovery, from digging up fossils to using the latest scanning techniques to reveal the secrets hidden in a variety of artefacts, including dinosaur poo! (known as coprolite to the experts).

A single PC was able to run both interactives simultaneously, keeping hardware costs down, and capacitance sensors were embedded below the table to allow user interaction.

The software can operate in single or dual languages and the client can edit the text content easily themselves.

Changing World

This mutli-user interactive allows visitors to explore the different features of the Cretaceous and Jurassic periods, including climate, plants and animals.

The visitor can then take a challenge and answer questions on the material they've been looking at. If unsuccessful they will be devoured by the T-Rex!

Surround Soundtracks

Surround sound environmental audioscapes were created by Clay for both of the dinosaur scenes at the exhibition, as well as an underwater soundtrack for a Predator X film.
